A method of delivering a substance into a material mass including the steps of measuring a quantity of a carrier fluid and a material to be delivered, mixing the carrier fluid and the material to be delivered, and subjecting the mixture to a magnetic influence (40) for increasing a permeability and effectiveness thereof by affecting the organization of the molecules of the mixture. Finally the mixture is introduced to the material mass for penetrating therein and direct, substantial absorbing of the mixture by the material mass and a device for the magnetic processing of a fluid substance to be delivered into a material mass, said device comprising: a fluid inlet (22) structured to permit the introduction of a fluid composition therethrough, magnetic means (40) structured and disposed to subject the fluid composition to a polarizing magnetic influence (40) and thereby rearrange fluid molecules of said fluid composition from a normal agglomerated state to a more linear and organized state such that a permeability and effectiveness thereof is increased, recycling means structured and disposed to effect repeated subjecting of the fluid composition to said magnetic influence, and a fluid outlet (24). |

The present invention relates to a novel process for forming metal matrix composite bodies. Particularly, an infiltration enhancer and/or an infiltration enhancer precursor and/or an infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with a filler material or a preform, at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the filler material or preform. Such spontaneous infiltration occurs without the requirement for the application of any pressure or vacuum. The molten matrix metal is provided in a unique manner which enhances the spontaneous infiltration process. |

A liquid coating method for coating a liquid onto inner cells of a honeycomb structure includes the steps of supplying a liquid to the inside of a honeycomb structure vertically arranged from its lower part to cause the liquid to adhere to the inner cells therein, and supplying pressurized air to an upper part of the honeycomb structure to discharge the liquid within the inner cells. A holding apparatus for holding an article includes an outer cylinder in a form of a pipe having an inner wall with an inner diameter which allows an article to be held to pass therethough easily and which has a sufficient strength, a resilient tube having an inner diameter which prevents the article to be held from passing therethough under no tension and having ends each sealingly connected to the outer cylinder, thus defining together with the inner wall of the outer cylinder a sealed space therebetween, means for discharging a fluid from the sealed space; and means for supplying the fluid to the sealed space. |

According to the invention, a chemically adsorbing material is reacted with a substrate surface having active hydrogen groups by dipping the substrate into a solution of the chemically adsorbing material simultaneous and applying ultrasonic waves to the solution. In this way, a high concentration monomolecular and/or polymer film substantially free from pin holes can be formed in a short period of time. That is, while the ultrasonic waves are applied, a chemical adsorbing material having an end functional chlorosilyl group is adsorbed onto the substrate surface, thereby forming a chemically adsorbed monomolecular and/or polymer film. The frequency of the ultrasonic waves are suitably in a range of 25 to 50 kHz. In addition, after formation of the adsorbed film, the substrate is washed for making monomolecular film by dipping it in a washing solution while applying ultrasonic waves. In this way, non-reacted chemical adsorbing material remaining on the substrate can be efficiently washed away. |

A process of printing ceramic articles simultaneously with electroforming them to produce ceramic articles having patterns thereon comprises preparing a thin flexible diaphragm with a pattern thereon, applying the diaphragm to an electrode, immersing the electrode with the diaphragm thereon in a ceramic slip and applying electric current between the electrode as an anode and a counter electrode to deposit ceramic material on the electrode to form a green ceramic article to which the pattern is imparted by the diaphragm. The electrode with the diaphragm and green ceramic article thereon is removed from the ceramic slip and the diaphragm and article are together removed from the electrode. The article thus formed with the pattern thereon is thereafter dried and fired. The diaphragm is either left on the article and consumed during firing or is removed from the article before firing. |
